Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Implementation of Sláintecare Reforms: Department of Health and HSE
Mr. Derek Tierney:
We will, yes. We cannot avoid planning, it is just how light that planning process will be. We will also have to go through a procurement process. We are hopeful that today's announcement on the public spending code gives us flexibility to move ahead within our own systems. As the Secretary General said earlier, we cannot avoid statutory planning or procurement regulation. We are not waiting around, we are trying to parallel as much as we can to make haste on it.
